I had as many doubts as anyone else. Standing on the starting line, we're all cowards.

The freedom of Cross Country is so primitive. It's woman vs. nature.

The footing was really atrocious. I loved it. I really like Cross Country; you're one with the mud.

The reason we race isn't so much to beat each other,... but to be with each other.

Encourage kids to enjoy running and play in athletics. Don't force them to run too much competition.
Arthur LydiardTrain, don't strain.
Arthur LydiardAthletes need to enjoy their training. They don't enjoy going down to the track with a coach making them do repetitions until they're exhausted. From enjoyment comes the will to win.

Of course it was painful, and there were times when, emotionally, I just wanted to chuck it all. But pain seems to be a precondition for this kind of sport. If pain weren't involved, who in the world would ever go to the trouble of taking part in sports like the triathlon or the marathon, which demand such an investment of time and energy? It's precisely because of the pain, precisely because we want to overcome that pain, that we can get the feeling, through this process, of really being alive--or at least a partial sense of it. Your quality of experience is based not on standards such as time or ranking, but on finally awakening to an awareness of the fluidity within action itself.

-The Hopis consider running a form of prayer; they offer every step as a sacrifice to a loved one, and in return ask the Great Spirit to match their strength with some of his own.
